We recommend using the textual changes suggested by the Bach and the marginal notes of the Vilna Shas. This section is devoted to any other important corrections that Acharonim have pointed out in the Gemara, Rashi and Tosfos.

22) [line 11]"וירא מלאך ...""VA'YERA MAL'ACH ..." - "(2) And an angel of HaSh-m appeared to him in a flame of fire within the thorn-bush, and he saw that the thorn-bush was burning on fire but the thorn-bush was not being consumed. (3) And Moshe said, 'I will turn now and see this wondrous sight, why the thorn-bush is not burning! (4) And HaSh-m saw that he turned away to see, and HaSh-m called to him from the thorn-bush and He said, 'Moshe! Moshe!' and he said, 'Here I am.' (5) And He said, 'Do not come closer unto here. Remove your shoes from upon your feet, for the place upon which you stand is holy land." (Shemos 3:2-5) - These verses are said as part of the remedy, for they contain phrases that a person directs towards the illness, such as "not being consumed" and "he turned away" (that is, the illness should turn away).

29) [line 23]חנניה, מישאל, ועזריהCHANANYA, MISHAEL, VA'AZARYA - Chananya, Mishael, and Azarya (three descendants of King David who were captured by the Babylonians and thrown into a furnace of fire by Nevuchadnetzar)
